George White
George welcomes everyone who comes to LFF into his home with open arms and a big “feel free to help yourself to anything!”. Besides being behind Sharon and Team Orange every step of the way, he cooks everyone amazing dinners, and makes sure the horses always have carrots and the people always have coffee!
Jim Wofford
Sharon’s longtime coach and mentor, Jimmy has been invaluable in many ways. His quiet words of wisdom remain a large part of Sharon’s training and teaching philosophy today. Jimmy was just as dedicated to Sharon’s long term development – and that of her horses – as he was to more immediate goals. Jimmy was a true horseman in all facets of the word, and we miss him more than words can communicate every day.

Kate Servais

Pearce Hunt and Daniel Watson
Our fabulous farrier, Pearce Hunt, lives close-by, which is very convenient especially when you have as many horses as we do!

We also love working with Daniel Watson, whose care and attention to detail does not go unnoticed.
